88:88 is a 2015 Canadian experimental docudrama film, directed by Isiah Medina. [1] A meditation on poverty, the film depicts the economic struggles of a group of young people in Winnipeg, using editing instead of narrative to drive the film in a stream of consciousness manner described by some critics as the filmic equivalent of a mixtape. [2]
The film's cast includes Erik J. Berg, Eliza Bronte, Avery Medina, Myles Taylor and Anna Valencia. The film's title is a reference to the 88:88 that displays on a digital clock after a power interruption. [1]
The film premiered at the Locarno Film Festival in August 2015, [3] and had its Canadian premiere at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival. [4]
The film was added to the Mubi platform in 2016, [5] and to YouTube later in the year. [6]
The film was named the sixth best undistributed film of 2015 in the 2015 IndieWire Critics Poll. At the 2016 Vancouver Film Critics Circle awards, Medina received a nomination for Best Director of a Canadian Film. [7]
